"I'm stepping in now," Tenraku declared with a determined expression on his face while locking onto Evil Dragon Ladon.

"General Treasure (Parinayakaratana)!!!" Like lightning, Tenraku dashed forward, simultaneously thrusting his spear towards his opponent.

Danger, extreme danger! Ladon roared hoarsely, frantically deploying barrier after barrier to block Tenraku's attacks, but—

Boom!!!

"Ahhhh!!!" All the barriers shattered, and Ladon screamed in agony. Under Tenraku's spear, a gaping, bloody hole erupted on his once sturdy and massive body!

And it wasn't over yet—

"General Treasure (Parinayakaratana)!!!"

"General Treasure (Parinayakaratana)!!!"

"General Treasure (Parinayakaratana)!!!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Ahhhhhhhh..." Tenraku thrust again and again, the immense destruction power shattering Ladon's robust body, while the sacred purification power corroded his flesh and organs.

Explosions and screams filled the air, and it was a one-sided massacre!

After who knows how long, Tenraku finally stopped. The surrounding area was a mess, and Evil Dragon Ladon's massive body lay battered and broken, utterly miserable.

"So, this is the legendary Evil Dragon," Tenraku remarked. "Alright, it's time to end you."

With a shake of his Holy Spear, Tenraku prepared to deliver the final blow to Ladon.

But at that moment, with a hiss, a purple pillar of fire erupted beneath Tenraku's feet.

"It's you again, always interrupting other people's battles," Tenraku said, annoyed, as he dodged the pillar of fire and glared at Walburga in the sky.

"Hehehe… Sorry about that, Red Dragon Emperor. Ladon is an important member of ours. We can't let you kill him," Walburga chuckled, twirling her gothic-styled parasol while standing on her magic circle.

"I see…" nodded Tenraku, then his gaze turned cold. "Then you'll die in his place!"

Tenraku thrust his spear, and the True Longinus extended rapidly, slashing through the air towards Walburga.

Caught off guard by Tenraku's sudden attack, Walburga screamed and hastily escaped through teleportation magic.

With a sneer, Tenraku's eyes flashed with determination. Do you think you can just come and go as you please? It's not that easy here!

"Gahapatiratana (Householder Treasure)!!!" With a flash of light, Tenraku's form split in two.

But these were not ordinary clones; both Tenrakus generated by Gahapatiratana (Householder Treasure) were genuine.

It was a strange feeling, having unified thoughts but capable of independent actions. And even if one of them died, as long as the other survived, the existence known as Kamiya Tenraku wouldn't disappear!

They exchanged a glance and nodded at each other. One of the Tenrakus activated the Flying Treasure ability, enveloping his entire body in golden light and soaring toward the direction where Walburga was escaping.

Meanwhile, the other Tenraku focused on Evil Dragon Ladon, who was preparing to flee.

"Sealing Treasure!!!" With a thrust of his spear, a large orb of light flew out from behind Tenraku and transformed into a massive barrier sphere, trapping Ladon inside.

"Ahhhhh… Kamiya Tenraku, you can't kill me! Even if you do, I can still resurrect!"

Continuously crashing against the barrier sphere, Ladon roared ferociously. The Sealing Treasure, after all, was a technique using barriers to trap enemies. 

For Ladon, who excelled in various barrier techniques, there might have been a chance to break free in his prime. However, now, after suffering repeated injuries and nearing exhaustion, escape was simply impossible.

"Do you think I'll give you a chance?" Tenraku sneered, plunging his Holy Spear into the barrier and flooding it with a massive amount of purification power.

"Ahhhhhhhhh!!!" Another intense scream erupted as Ladon's body was gradually purified and dissolved, leaving behind only a black orb. For some powerful beings, even if their bodies were destroyed, their souls wouldn't easily disappear. And that black orb was Ladon's soul, tainted with darkness.

Seemingly unwilling to give up, Ladon's soul orb continuously rammed against the barrier, trying to escape. With indifference, Tenraku manifested the Red Dragon Emperor's gauntlet and extracted the jade jewel embedded in it. 

Drawing Ladon's soul into the jade jewel, Tenraku sealed it with several layers of enchantment before stowing it away. With Ladon's soul sealed, even if Rizevim had the Holy Grail, he wouldn't be able to resurrect him!

"Time to check on Rias and Akeno…" With his opponent dealt with, Tenraku intended to assist Rias and Akeno. Activating the Flying Treasure ability, he was enveloped in golden light and shot up into the sky.

Meanwhile, elsewhere—

"Damn you, Red Dragon Emperor! Stop chasing after me!" Walburga urged her magic power, flying at extreme speed in the air. Watching Tenraku closing in behind her, Walburga became increasingly frantic.

But seeing Walburga's growing anxiety, Tenraku smirked. Always jumping around causing trouble, who else would I chase after? With this thought, Tenraku accelerated, closing the distance between them once again.

Knowing that she would soon be caught if this continued, Walburga gritted her teeth and abruptly halted.

"Do you really think I'm afraid of you, you damn Red Dragon Emperor? Let the burning of my 'moe moe' commence!" Activating her Longinus, the Chief Mourner's Crucified Stand of Purple Flame - Incinerate Anthem, purple flames formed crosses in front of Walburga and shot toward Tenraku with a deafening roar.

Although these flames weren't as spectacular as before, their power was still formidable. Walburga had used them to burn countless enemies. However, Tenraku seemed unfazed by the roaring flames crosses. With a sweep of his Holy Spear, accompanied by booming explosions, he obliterated all the fiery crosses heading towards him.

"You monster!" With widened eyes, Walburga watched as Tenraku emerged unscathed from the flames.

"Hmph, not only causing chaos everywhere but also daring to insult others—" "Adding insult to injury!" With a flick of his warspear, Tenraku charged towards Walburga.

Having witnessed Tenraku's prowess, Walburga didn't dare to confront him head-on. Instead, she quickly used magic to teleport to one side of Agreas. There was a sturdy barrier barrier between Agreas and the town of Auros, which should be able to hold back the damned Red Dragon Emperor. 

However, just as Walburga breathed a sigh of relief, with a thunderous sound, a hole was punctured in the barrier wall, and the Red Dragon Emperor burst through it, once again in pursuit.

"…" Maybe… I should continue to flee…

To be continued…
